I watched "the space invaders - in search of lost time" yesterday evening.
It was interesting to be able to put faces and voices on some guys from the scene.

Tiny spoiler alert, so don't read further if you haven't seen it:
The end was not very subtlte in underlining 5 times with a sad music and pictures that: now is the emotional moment.

Other than that I never seem to get enough of these old arcade footage, so I quite enjoyed it.

I always wonder how someone can play nonstop for 44 hours??? 
Eating and drinking while playing might be ok, Nibbler only has a joystick, but.....erm...you know what I mean?

- Does it educate about ladies hair dressing in the eighties: Check

Is Archer not in it ? Then it must be boring, right Gyruss ?

And can somebody explain me why we need 4 minute trailers these days ? Why not 30 seconds or a minute ?

I feel like having seen the entire thing after these long trailers....

On some games it's possible to rack up so many extra lives that you can walk away and lave it alone for five minutes. Some games may have a bug or hidden feauture to "park" the game like Aart explained about Galaxian, but he didn't trust it enough to leave it.....I actually asked him about it and he said he uhmmm, made sure he didn't have to go plus, Galaxian is "only" about 8 hours for a WR....

I wonder most about how they don't fall asleep, happen to see a documentary about that yesterday and they showed there was some medicine called Modafinil that would keep you running for nights....it showed a Canadeian guy who was working 100 hours a week because instead of sleeping he went back to the office during the nights......I say he'll pay the price sooner or later...
